Snowy Scene

Center detail shot of a huge oil painting we've had hanging in our living room for years. The artist's signed it as "F.Whitman." Joni and I have always loved this painting, which takes up almost a third of the wall. For those of you in warmer climates, I thought it might help cool you off!

I'm sure he would have. This guy's really good. I wonder if he's still around and painting?

It's certainly a beautiful scene...........and the colours in the sky and water are gorgeous (if a touch over-saturated). I wonder if it's a real scene or just a place from the painter's imagination?

The way he's depicted the ice and frost, especially on the trees, is brilliant. I can see why you and Joni loved this so much.

He is a fine artist. The oversaturation of the colors I'm was my fault, as I increased it just before I posted it. I'll adjust it back a bit later today. And it always seemed to me to be an idealized forest scene from his imagination.

Thanks so much for your interest in this shot!

Thank you, Malik. And as cold as this scene looks, I'd still love to walk that forest as it's been painted (wearing my long underwear, of course!).

A lovely painting, John. We're heading into winter, but I doubt it will become as frosty as seen here.
